Hypothetical DT: Dream Theater Covers Indie Hits
« on: June 22, 2010, 09:35:12 AM »
They can be from any decade, any band, any sound, but they have to be indie. What songs would you like to hear them do?

These would be my picks

Passion Pit - Little Secrets (imagine LaBrie hitting those notes)
Modest Mouse - Missed the Boat
Arcade Fire - Rebellion (Lies)

I don't understand.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Arctic Monkeys - A Certain Romance

Almost certainly wouldn't work, but then I don't think any DT indie covers could to be honest.

Bands that aren't good enough to have a contract.

Did someone say "Lat would probably shoot himself." No? Well, I would.
I felt its length in quite a few places.

Great song, but no way it would work as a cover by DT, and frankly I can't think of many songs in the genre that would work.

I agree.  Hence my earlier post.
